QUOTE HAHA this is a first Alex needs help with a code... Ehh... not exactly the first time. You should read some of my early topics when I was a little noob programmer and didn't really know anything. But anyway, I wouldn't really consider css as a programming language, or even as "code". Its more like "annoying text that makes your page not suck as much when you can get it to work but otherwise is just a pain in the..." well you get the idea.
I agree... if it were efficient I would sit down and use tables since they're easy but problem is you cant always do what you need to do!
You need an expandable div that is set to limit of being 100pixels from the top of the window and goes all the way to the bottom? Sorry trying to make sure I understand correctly

Sorry trying to make sure I understand correctly Yes thats exactly what I need. If you can make me something that works in all browsers to do this then you can have my 20 credits.
This sounds like you need some Javascript to insert dynamic CSS into the page and use AJAX to reload the page whenever the window size is changed. Or CSS I believe can do the trick. I know that you can stack another 100px div on top as a filler and have the other with a height of the rest of the window.
This sounds like a challenge but I don't think I will be attempting this anytime soon. I've come across articles dealing with using JS to dynamically alter layouts on window resizing by the user but never looked into it. There would be no need for AJAX as JS alone should be enough since its all happening on the client side. If anyone comes up with a solution let us see!
Well, here is a small code that could do it. I am not sure if it works in all browsers. Check it. It uses a margin to lower it by 100px.
CSS: CODE * { padding: 0 0 0 0; } //Must set padding to 0 for Opera. body { //Set top margin to be 100px margin-top:100px; //Set rest of margins to be 0 margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; margin-bottom:0px; } .lowereddiv { //Set height to fill rest of page height:100% }
I don't have time to work with the code, but check this out:

Yes that was my first attempt. I thought I found it and wouldn't have to post this on trap, but ran into the problem that mikeyboy discovered in his edit. QUOTE(~Nick[; @ May 20 2008, 03:15 PM) CODE <style> #div{position:absolute;top:100px;bottom:0px;width:auto;left:0px;} </style> That good? Nick's code works in both IE and FF. I don't have Opera. By giving it a bg color I can see that it works. EDIT: It doesn't work if the content is longer than the screen length, i.e. if user needs to scroll down...interesting......this is the type of problem that I can become obsessed with......I----------must----------resist------------obsessing--------------- CODE <style> #div{position:absolute;top:100px;bottom:0px;width:auto;left:0px;overflow:auto;} </style> Try it now. QUOTE(galexcd @ May 14 2008, 07:18 PM) Nevermind I can see now this is impossible without using JSS. I'm just going to use tables. Thats right. You guys heard me. Tables can do more than your stupid standards compliant div + css. Css and div layers are inferior. I wouldn't say that. The biggest hurdle is cross-browser compatibility on this one. IE's failure to recognize min-height, for instance. Might need to wait for CSS 3.0 for this issue to become a possibility. Using equations to calculate positioning and height/width, etc.
